Sometimes it's the Little Things

So I've been realizing something about this blog, and I don't know that it's a bad thing, but it is something I want to address. And here it is: I tend to post right after I've been spending time with people from Navs, or right after I've been really focusing on God, or having a conversation about Him, or whatever. Which is great, I mean, I think it's important to acknowledge God's presence in all those big moments. But you kind of expect to see God in those moments. For example, this afternoon I got together with Abby and we talked about fundraising for STP, and just as I expected, God used Abby to calm some of my worries about fundraising, and to encourage me just in general. But God is also present in the little things, like this morning I had a paper due, but I hadn't printed it out yet because I didn't finish it until last night when my roommate had already gone to bed, and I was worried that I would have to print it while my roommate was still asleep, or worse, that I would have to rush back to my dorm between classes and print it, but sure enough, after I went to the bathroom to change and brush my teeth, Amanda had woken up, so I could print without fear of disturbing her rest. And the other day, I was feeling kind of under-appreciated, and a random guy I don't know held the door open for me and insisted I go through it first. Sometimes, God is working in all the little things that happen, and I think it's pretty important to acknowledge those moments too. So here's to all the little things God does for us, even when we don't really realize it!
